GALL FOR A MASS MEETING AT
THE COURT HOUSE,
Tuesday, March lst, tor Consultation
and Organization.

We are authorized by number of
leading business men to call meet
ing of the citizens of McMinnville
and Warren county, at the courthouse
in McMinnville, next Tuesday.
March lst, 1887 for the purpose of
consultation upon the matter of new
railroad through Warren county.
Two or three new railroads are pro-
jected through Tennessee, one or
more of which McMinnville may
secure If the proper effort is made,
but it will require united action, and
a strong and long pull altogether to
do so.
Let every citizen in Warren county
who feels an interest in the develop
ment of the county attend this meet
ing Tuesday. In order to properly
present the resources and advantages
offered by Warren county to the con-
sideration of the projectors of these
roads.an organized effort on the part of
the citizen of the county is necessary,
and one object of Tuesdays meeting
is to effect such organization. Come
out every body, and bring your
neighbor with you. A

NICHOLSON SPRINGS.
A Strange Wild Animal Frightening
the Natives.

Farmers mostly done sowing oats,
and gardening commenced. Wheat
looking well. Health in this vicinity
very good. - Il, " z
Samuel Jones, brother Of Mrs.
Noah Brooks, and his daughter Alice,
who have been spending the winter
at the Springs, returned to their home
at West Milton, Ohio, Monday. They
are SO well pleased with the climate
that they expect to return and spend
next winter, and may probably re-
main permanently.
A report has reached us of some
wild animal attacking people as they
traverse lonely roads after dark. To
give some idea of its size, it attacked
two men on horse back and ran un-
der one of the horses, frightening
them so much that they both ran
away, and as one of the men had got
ten off his horse to fix his saddle, he
was left to face the monster alone.
He proceeded straightway to the
top of the fence, where he took refuge
until the departure of the animal. A
party of men and boys are going out
hunting for the said wild animal and
when it is captured / will let the
STANDARD know.

She Never Eats Meat.

good Old friend of ours says that it is in
comprehensive to her how people can eat
meat during this heated term" She claims
that the poor animals become over heated,
that their flesh Is full of impure matter, and
that meat ought not to be eaten in warm
weather any way. For herself, she "eschews"
meat, and when she wants something
stronger" than vegetables she eats "kidneys.
sweetbreads. little bacon, some liver now
and then and occasionally tripe." She re-
yards this diet as much more hea.thv than the
flesh" Of over heated animals. She saws,
however, that as rule during the summer
she is strictly vegetarian" and olives almost
entirely on milk and eggs."-Buffalo Com

Results of Arsenic Eatinp

The exact state of affairs brought about by
arsenic eating is a dinnution of the strength
of the blood; the capillary blood vessels are
stopped from working the ends of the blood
vessels are killed; no blood is supplied to the
skin, and the real reason for the white, trans
parent nature of the skin is that it is practi-
cally dead. If the result of arsenic eating is
tue highly transparent state of the skin, and
il this can only result from the killing of
blood vessels. the claim that there is 10 harm
in the habit becomes an absurdity.-New

A SEPARATE JUDICIAL DISTRICT.

A meeting of the bar was held last night
at the law office of Bentley, Hatfield & Bent
lev to consider the ACCESSIBILITY of making
Sed gwick county a separte judicial district.
About twenty members were present
After the meeting was called to order, Col.
Hallwell was upon the motion of Mr.. Hat
field elected chairman, and Mr.. Vermillion,
secretary. The object of the meeting was
then stated by Mr. Hatfield. In the course
of his remarks he said that it had long been
a mooted question if this county should be q
separate judicial district, and at last it was
suggested that a meeting of the bar
be held, and if such action should
meet public favor he would be glad to serve
them by presenting the petition to the legis-
islature.
JudgeHarris, as the father of toe bar, was
called upon. The other counties of the dis
trict he said, recognize the fact that we
have en- ough Of business to attend to and
we find an entire cordiality from them
From his own experience be found that the
district judge Of Sedgwick county had too
much business to give al the proper atten-
tion and dispose Of it within a proper time.
Besides this there were cases that required
his immediate action, and the lawyers
could not without great loss to their clients
start out over the country and hunt up the
ulge, this is matter Of the utmost i'm
poctance. The question is not q new one
tome nor does it come upon me suddenly.
Int / oil -aJ IF md hox
u 'ged it Atchison with at least coco less
p 'nulation has separate district 1T is
our duty to attend to the matter at once -
Col. Hallowell said that in conversation with
Judge Wall, the latter had expressed him
self as willing to abide by the action of the
glad TO confine his duties to
Seagwick county, yet he could not take an
active part in the matter we thus have his
earnest cooperation He then cited Shaw
nee county rs an instance of accumulated
legal business. Even if, at present we have
no need Of this, yet we all believe before the
next session of the legislature the population
Of the city VIII be doubled, and then there
will be an imperative need of
seperate judicial district. There
will, no doubt be some trouble
in getting the motion carried as
there is going to be a goodly number of ju-
dietary questions come up FOR consideration;
Vet ! believe by pushing the matter it will
be carried. Col. Dyer arose and moved that
in order TO expediate matters and get the
question as quickly as possible before the
bar that "A committee of five be appointed
to draw up and obtain the signatures
of all the members of the bar
to resolution creating of Sedgwick county
. separate judicial district and also draft a
petition to the legislature praying for the
creation of said district. seconded by Mr..
Morris. The chair then appointed the follow
ing gentlemen: Col. Dyer, Dave Dale, J. ID.
Houston, Z Il Nermilliop. and at the solicit
tation of those present added his own name.

WANT OF A BUREAU OF STATISTICS AND
INFORMATION ABOUT WICHITA,

To the Editor of the Eagle.
have been thinking for some time that
we labor under considerable disadvantage in
Wichita by not having responsible method
of giving reliable information upon every
subject affecting the business of the city to
the numerous outside inquirers.
A few weeks ago Rev. Mr.. Hendryx in
conversation with me, briefly outlined plan
by which information upon our business out
look, present and future, might be given.
Mr.. Hendryx's plan was to form in Wich-
tia an agency for collecting statistics as to
the amount of business done in every depart
ment; the amount and kind of raw material
for manufacturing purposes; the lines of rail-
way over which it must come to the city, etc.
Such statistics should represent the facts ex-
actly; be printed in proper condensed form,
and if necessary be illustrated by notes and
circulars These should then be be sent out
to every quarter in which the least possible
interest might be awakened in the prospects
OF our city.
This agency should be under the supervis-
ion of a responsible committee of business
men and nothing authorized until after their
Endorsement Real estate owners and agents,
banks and business men, l dare say, would
support the agency by contribution.
Such information has heretofore been Civ
en- principally by real estate men to their
customers And no class of men in the city
have done so much in the past as they have
for it. But coming from a man whose bus
mess is to sell someone's land to g. newcomer
it does not carry with it the conviction to
the wholesale man or manufacturer that it
would if it was authorized by a committee
composed of men representing the several
leading branches of the city's business.
Kansas City, 1 see by the Journal has such
an agency. And we cannot get ours to
work too soon. a city like Wichita, which
started on the metropolitan road only in
1885, and sold SIG, 193, 527 worth of real estate
in 1886 against Kansas City's ST., 745. zoe. dur
ing the year of our start, need not hide her
light under bushel WIN HUTCHINSON.
Our correspondent is off as to who has furn-
ished the statistics for this city and county.
1t has been done by the newspapers. For
years, annually, or from ~ TO 81, the
EAGLE published annual tables besides get
ting out number of emigration editions in
which all the statistical information obtain
able was gathered up and published. Since
the daily was established the statistics have
come along daily, and there is little or no
statistical information used by real estate
agents or by any one else, that don't come
from the columns of the papers of the city.
AS for statistical bureau, the proper
place for such collection, compilation and
preservation, is the Office of the secretary of
a real Board of Trade, an organization with
regular corporate powers and capital, and
which will be organized in the early spring,
the preliminary work having already been
done. 1t will embrace all of our prominent
business men, and the representatives of
every important industry and interested.
